  1. Wow That is truly shocking. I just learned about this because this is the first time I have been here in a while. Lovekraft always seemed like such a kind and helpful person. RIP
  2. I own an AD60VTX, another type of valvetronix, and it's great. If something happened to it, I would replace it in a heartbeat.
  3. broiden- sorry I didn't reply with a diagram or advice. I was out of town and had no access to a computer. As mentioned earlier, you would need a super-switch to wire it the way you stated.
  4. No In all pedals, all grounds are wired to the negative part of the power supply.
  5. Welcome to the forum! Your switch is a fender-type five way. I will draw a diagram for you if you want. What pickup combinations do you want with your switch?
  6. Looks awesome, dude. I like the soundhole pattern, very cool. P.S.- how heavy is it? looks like it would weigh a ton. EDIT: duh, of course it would be lighter. not sure what I was thinking
  7. Go to radio shack and buy one for 15 bucks. I don't know if they are the best, but they are cheap and they do their job.
  8. Guitar is kind of hard to see in picture but looks awesome ^ rickenbacker? ^
  9. Try plugging right into the amp. This has happened to me with my tube amp and it turns out that it was just a dying battery in a pedal. Even though your effects are off, they will still not work if the battery is dead (in some cases).
  10. This is just a thought but maybe one of the cables you're using is dead
  11. I was talking about the wires from the bridge and neck volumes to the switch. I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear. But I'm glad you said what you did. It won't make any difference sonically in this project because none of the pickups will be on at the same time, but for future reference, to make a humbucker series and in phase (the normal way- without any mods) you solder the two finishes (red and white) together and not the starts (green and black). If you look at the link above you will notice that you are soldering the two starts together. This will make the pickups out-of-phase with other pickups. But as I said above, since none of the pickups are combined, it will sound the same either way. Hope that made sense
  12. The only problem is that the wires coming from the bridge and neck are backwards. I know logically the way you have it makes sense, but they need to be reversed. Other than that everything looks fine.
  13. Welcome to the forum! Here is how you should hook up the switch diagram
